thanks, of course I realized some of the graphics changes and I remember the music changes (now I usually switch it off).
The music changes too. I think that about covers it.
WFYABTA changes.
I wonder if this is urban legend as I never bothered to look for it in the code...
Anyways, era changes affect way more the AI than the human players. Especially the discount per era. On deity, it's 5% per era on everything. Try to imagine 5 eras later...
If such thing existed for human players, beelining would be even more jusfiable than ever.
From what I recall from some of my past incursions in the code (SDK), I saw multiple calls of era functions in the game. I don't know about the effects on the human player (as I focus on AI files), but there are a lot of little era influences on the AI's. Like resource costs through ages, acceptable era for AI to start gunning cultural, etc.
Yes, I thought the same thing.U.N. is the peaceful AP. I mean it does not promote wars, but tries to appease factions.
If the AP is not behind it, I sense defense pact work here. DP works that if someone attacks your partner, you are forced to DoW them (in your case a team).
Did you accept a peace vassal? If so, you automatically declare war on everyone your new vassal is at war with.Longtime lurker, first-time poster here.
Something strange happened to me today in civ iv. The game is saying that I declared war on Hammarabi and Ragnar (his vassal) except.... I didn't. I reloaded a save to see if I maybe had accidentally declared war (not sure how I would've) but nope, I really didn't declare war.
The circumstances:
- year 1900
- I'm playing Alexander
- I'd just finished a war with Washington two turns prior in 1896
- Hammarabi is the leader of the UN, and Washington holds the Apostolic palace
- Ragnar is Hammarabi's vassal
- The event log says that I declared war on them, not visa versa
I thought perhaps this was an apostolic palace thing but it didn't go up for vote, so I think not. Can the UN somehow make you declare war on someone? Is this a super-cool espionage tactic that I was unaware of (i.e. did Washington somehow pull this on me?)
Any ideas?
ALT+CLICK leader nameMy other idea is that you fell victim to TMIT's "interface thinks you're control-clicking when you're not" bug, which can cause accidental declarations of war.
No wonder I've never seen it. I very rarely do alt-clicking. (I'm running a Mac, so I'm not even sure what the alt equivalent is.)
That's what I thought at first too, but when I reloaded and tried to play again the same thing happened two more times, so I don't think it's an errant click.My other idea is that you fell victim to TMIT's "interface thinks you're control-clicking when you're not" bug, which can cause accidental declarations of war.
